Laura headed out the door for a casual lunch date with Kyle, whom she had just met through mutual friends. Well, the lunch date lasted until the late evening. These two found themselves absolutely smitten with each other, as they discussed their passions and dreams for their life. Following this first date, Kyle told his mom, “I’m going to marry that girl!” After two years of dating, he surprised Laura with a stunning engagement ring while they were on an island cruise in sunny St. Maarten.
This couple is genuine, loyal to their friends and family, and they light up the room as soon as they enter it. When spending time together, they love frequenting concerts, exploring new places, and enjoying this city’s delicious cuisine. I’ve watched Laura grow up over the years, as she is my sister’s best friend. What a privilege to be part of their story by capturing their engagement photos in downtown Lancaster (the central market area and also Franklin & Marshall's campus).

Wow, what a ring! Laura is also a creative photographer, and she suggested the mitten + ring shot. Love!! You two have the absolute best smiles! Goodness!
